Rancho RS5000X 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 2003-2010 Ram 3500 2WD

Part Number: RS55279

Summary: The Rancho RS5000X Gas Shock Series delivers a significant upgrade in ride quality and durability for your Ram 3500. Featuring an innovative Cross-Tuned technology, these twin-tube shocks are engineered to handle the heavy-duty demands of a 2WD work truck while maintaining smooth street comfort. Designed for stock height applications, they provide the consistent damping required to manage large payloads and highway stability without the harshness of a standard heavy-duty shock.

Features

• Cross-Tuned Technology: A unique valve system provides a progressive engagement of the valving to ensure a smooth ride during normal driving and firm control during off-road or towing maneuvers.
• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: The 5/8-inch nitro-carburized piston rod provides increased structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal and piston rod to ensure protection against road debris and corrosion.
• Low-Friction Seal: A self-lubricating fluid seal provides reduced friction and heat buildup to ensure consistent performance during extended hauling.
